Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2083: Chapter 2127: Taking All the Advantage

Jiang Fan rolled his eyes at the Big Black Dog.

What kind of crazy idea is this?

A Three Calamities Realm bed warmer?

If even Jian Sankuang dared to warm the bed, he wouldn’t dare to sleep!

For such a person, it’s best to get rid of them quickly; the longer they stay, the more threatening they become.

He weighed the sword scabbard in his hand and said, "Since you sincerely repent, I will not hold it against you."

"Today’s events are wiped clean, and don’t appear before me again."

Jian Sankuang felt as if he had been granted a royal pardon.

Indeed, it was all a conspiracy by the Big Black Dog.

Even his ninety or so Spirit Swords were part of the Big Black Dog’s cunning plan!

His Majesty Nanqian is still very wise; it’s the treacherous dog villain by his side that’s at fault!

She glared viciously at the Big Black Dog, then turned to Jiang Fan to bow in thanks: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the pardon."

"I shall take my leave!"

With that said, she decisively transformed into a streak of empty shadow and fled the Dustless Realm.

Jiang Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally rid of a major concern.

At this moment, his pant leg was tugged.

Looking down, the Big Black Dog used its mouth to tug at Jiang Fan’s clothes, its three dog eyes staring at the sword scabbard in Jiang Fan’s hand, its front legs rubbing like a fly’s hands.

The meaning was that it had a part in acquiring the sword scabbard, so it should get a share.

Jiang Fan expressionlessly kicked it and initiated Mute Zen.

"Is now the time for dividing the spoils?"

"At least wait until we leave the Dustless Realm."

The Qingling Great Sage pursed her red lips, feeling uneasy:

"Your Majesty, I suspect you are of true dragon lineage and am willing to accept any punishment."

The Big Black Dog used Mute Zen to chuckle queerly: "Master, this fragrant and obedient one would make a perfect chambermaid!"

Jiang Fan’s forehead twitched: "You’ve learned another suicidal technique!"

If it’s not having a Three Calamities Realm bed warmer, it’s having a Three Calamities Realm chambermaid.

The Big Black Dog is probably hoping for his early death so it can inherit his estate?

Jiang Fan looked at the Qingling Great Sage expressionlessly and said, "To err is human, who can be without fault? Make no exceptions next time."

The Dustless Realm is far too close to Central Earth; within a few days, one could arrive.

For safety’s sake, it’s better not to create rifts with the Dustless Realm to prevent an immediate enemy for Central Earth.

The Qingling Great Sage looked grateful and said, "Your Majesty is benevolent, I am endlessly grateful."

"However, as I said before, if Your Majesty were the Emperor, I would bear the fault myself."

She produced a brand-new Jade Talisman, took a deep breath, and infused ninety percent of her Power of Laws into the Jade Talisman.

"This Jade Talisman contains ninety percent of my power in one strike."

"Anyone below the Three Calamities Realm is certain to die; even if a Three Calamities Realm came personally, they would have to be cautious."

"Now, I present it to Your Majesty as compensation."

Oh?

Jiang Fan was overjoyed; he was worried about lacking treasures to attack the enemy.

Though he had a Taichu Seed, its usage was too harsh, and without strong assistance, applying it to a Three Calamities Realm’s body would almost be impossible.

He pretended to be reserved and said, "I walk through all heavens, and none dare oppose me; what need have I for protective items?"

"However, if I don’t accept it, you’ll feel uneasy."

"Very well, I’ll reluctantly accept it."

With a sweep of his sleeve, the Jade Talisman fell into Jiang Fan’s hand and was swiftly placed into the Space Storage Device.

Having obtained two treasures in succession, Jiang Fan was in high spirits.

As the saying goes, misfortune dwells under fortune.

The encounter with Jian Sankuang’s pursuit might not be a bad thing.

The Qingling Great Sage exhaled softly, smiling: "Your Majesty, please do enter the palace to rest, and let me properly entertain you."

Jiang Fan pondered briefly.

Since the crisis is resolved, there’s no need to linger in the Dustless Realm.

The Great Wine Sacrifice’s fate is unknown, and there’s no time to waste.

"I no longer feel like touring all heavens, I’ll come back to the Dustless Realm another day."

"Farewell."

The Big Black Dog sensibly bit open the world’s barrier.

Jiang Fan donned the Void Feather Robe and stepped towards the rift.

Behind him, the Qingling Great Sage and the sages of the Dustless Realm wore helpless expressions. Who asked them to dampen His Majesty Nanqian’s spirits?

Originally, they could have negotiated the migration to Nanqian with His Majesty Nanqian in person and demanded more benefits.

But alas, such a mishap occurred.

"Farewell, Your Majesty," the Qingling Great Sage said with a bow.

Jiang Fan nodded slightly without turning his head, having already stepped into the void.

But he recalled something, slowly turned back, and looked at one of the many sages of the Dustless Realm.

That sage happened to be a recently promoted female Demon Venerable with an ordinary appearance yet exuding demonic energy.

His eyes narrowed slightly: "Have you seen me?"

It was precisely this woman who had confidently asserted he wasn’t His Majesty Nanqian.

Without having seen or interacted, how could she be so certain?

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable’s face showed panic, hurriedly covering: "I... I’ve seen Jiang Fan of Central Earth."

"I didn’t know that it was Your Majesty; I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

This woman had indeed seen him.

But why did he have no recollection at all?

Glancing at the Qingling Great Sage beside him, Jiang Fan said plainly, "Ignorance is innocent, never mind."

"Farewell."

With that said, he stepped completely into the void.

Although he faintly felt something was off with this woman, he certainly couldn’t justly dispose of her in front of the Qingling Great Sage, could he?

Once the Big Black Dog also departed, the world’s barrier resealed.

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable then collapsed weakly, beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead: "Truly unfair."

"This irritating guy is actually His Majesty Nanqian!"

"Central Earth’s Jiang Fan, the Champion Marquis of the Hundred Realms of All Heavens, turns out to be another incarnation of His Majesty Nanqian?"

"Who would dare believe it if it were spoken?"

The Qingling Great Sage’s face returned to calm, her glossy jade feet stepping on the sky as she headed toward the palace, not turning her head:

"You really believe he’s His Majesty Nanqian?"

Ah?

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable was taken aback, then astonished: "He’s a fake? But he clearly has the Imperial Jade Seal!"

With an undisturbed expression, the Qingling Great Sage said, "The imprint he used was of the genuine Daqian Divine Kingdom Jade Seal, not a counterfeit Jade Seal from Nanqian."

As it turns out, it’s not just the Big Black Dog.

The Qingling Great Sage also noticed that the seal on the silk-scroll carried a distinct aura that differed from the imitation Yu Seals of Nanqian.

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable and many other sages were left gaping.

That man was actually an impostor!

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable came to her senses, angrily stating, "Then why didn’t you expose him?"

The Qingling Great Sage calmly asked in return, "Would there be any benefit?"

This question stumped her.

If a pretender to His Majesty Nanqian died in the Dustless Realm, they wouldn’t gain a single advantage.

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable grumbled, "But there’s no need to give him such a valuable treasure. You consumed ninety percent of your Power of Laws; it’ll take a long retreat to replenish it."

The Qingling Great Sage’s lips curled slightly: "Although he’s not His Majesty Nanqian, being able to replicate the Imperial Jade Seal means extraordinary fortune."

"Combined with his resemblance to His Majesty Nanqian in appearance."

"Forming a good relationship might yield unexpected returns in the future."

The middle-aged female Demon Venerable pouted indignantly: "He’s getting off too easy, that bastard."

"The way he treated me before, and now he’s slipping through my fingers and benefiting without any embarrassment!"

"Outrageous!"

For some reason, this newly titled female Demon Venerable didn’t exhibit as much reverence to the Qingling Great Sage as the other sages did.

The Qingling Great Sage smiled and said, "You’d best let go of old grudges and get along with him."

"He is no longer the little Martial Artist from Central Earth you once encountered."
